We've been here before, but why not give it another go?!
The ruleset is Swords&Wizardry Complete Revised Edition - a retro-clone of the original 1974-1978 rules for Dungeons & Dragons*, an edition usually called Original D&D or "OD&D."
It is familiar to us because it is d20 based, but there are some subtle and interesting differences from what we are used to, and definitely from our PF1e games.
It’s lighter, faster, combat is deadlier, magic is stranger. Getting back to a more basic game will allow us to understand what rules we like and miss, and which ones are just superfluous and we can leave to the side.
We’ll pick up the rest as we go.
We will play with pregenerated characters, but first dot in and we'll take it from there.
Post below when you are ready to go ;)

After reviewing the pregens I think we will do this differently.
Not because I think they are weak or anything else along those lines, of course not ahem....
But because the idea is to showcase a bit of how the game works, which is different from PF1e to the extent most of the class abilities are inbuilt and not dependent on Feats, Skills etc.
